post oak bluffs

1 sense · Free VividLex dictionary · Thesaurus

  1. 1. A [poker] term meaning a [bluff] in which the bet is a small fraction of the pot. The concept behind the move is that an opponent will interpret the bet as indicating a strong hand and that the player betting is afraid a larger bet will not get paid off (called). The term is believed to originate in Texas where the cheapest wood used to make fence-posts is known as "post oak." > Sammy min-bet the end but I was sure he was on a post oak bluff so I popped him back with bottom pair and he mucked.
